He kind of looks like the barber from 'Coming To America':

Looks like Wino.

Saying he “Rescued” those women is an exaggeration at best.

Just my opinions.

How is it an exaggeration? Amanda yelled for help and he broke her out of the locked house. I'd say he had a major hand in the rescue.

He lent her his phone for her to make the call to 911. The call got the police there, but Mr Ramsey had already gotten her out.

He responded for a call of help when he could have just as easily walked on by.

When he could not open the door he kicked a hole in it not knowing the situation, there could have been someone with a weapon that could have hurt him, but he acted anyway.

In my opinion, he is the hero of this story.

He called from his phone, then she got on and said “I’m Amanda Berry”

At least is what the story I’m being told now. Either way it was his phone because 911 had his address.

Well opinions are one thing and facts are another. If the facts as I understand them are correct, he noticed a woman screaming for help to escape a house she was locked in, and busted her out. Allowing her to use his phone to call the police which resulted in the other women being busted out. Perhaps you have some special definition of "rescue" that is superior and ought be adopted by others which would exclude the rescue of these women? But until you enlighten me, I will congratulate this hero on his rescue of these women.

He responded to cries for help and kicked in a door so that a woman could get out of the house in what he thought was a domestic violence situation, not knowing if the man was there, if someone had a gun, or whatever, and with no concern for his own gain or safety. That is plenty heroic to me.

Furthermore , once he did that, it was critical that he and Amanda got the police there quickly, because if the man returned home and saw the broken door, there is no telling what he would do when he found out his secret had been exposed. He may have immediately killed the other women.

Ramsey helped get her out the door of the prison house. He saw her at the door that was fastened so that it only opened a coưple of inches and ran over to help her get out.
